About Us

Our goal and mission with austintx.foodhandlerclasses.com is to provide an elegant online food handler permit course at a minimal cost to the student. Food Handler Classes' certification system will allow for you to easily sign up, study the curriculum, and receive your State of Texas Accredited Food Handler Permit.

The first step is to sign up for the course. This is an easy process. Just a few simple questions to verify and then creation of your username and password. Afterwards, you can pay a minimal fee to take the Food Handler Course online. Most major credit cards are accepted through our service.

From there you will then study the curriculum which discusses the fundamentals of food safety, bare hand contact of ready-to-eat foods, how foodborne illness is caused and the methods to prevent it. Once you've studied all the material, you will receive a Food Handler Classes permit to print and give to your employer.

Fortunately, your Food Handler Classes permit will be recognized throughout the State of Texas, so if you move or need another permit, just log in and print off another food handler card.

Is your permit about to expire? Don't worry! If you registered with the Food Handler Classes system, it will notify you at your account email address when it is time to renew your license. This will give you plenty of time to renew your certificate.

Also, have you moved or forgotten which FoodHandlerClasses.com website you registered through? No problem! Just log in to any of our FoodHandlerClasses.com sites and you will be automatically redirected to the correct one.
